There are good numbers of post of this but not of them are simple one. One of them is below one which is look simple https://developer.xamarin.com/recipes/ios/content_controls/navigation_controller/add_a_nav_bar_bottom_toolbar/
I am new to xamarin and currently using xamarin form to develope an cross plate form app. It looks above example is using xamarin native not xamarin form? Can same example will work for xamarin form? Or for this kind of UI manipulation xamarin native is better than xamarin form. As i am new to xamarin, should i focus on xamarin native instead of xamarin form for serious app development.
Thanks,

Please click here for Bottom Navigation Bar for Xamarin Forms.
This will look like below:
You could build it on your own with a ControlTemplate.
No CustomRenderer is needed.

I need to design bottom navigation bar like I attached image using xamarin.forms common code for both android and IOS. Can anybody refer any link or library tool to do this?
You should check the xamarin community toolkit, this is certainly possible to create with the tabview.

So I am creating an app in Xamarin forms. I am an experienced .net developer but my Xamarin forms knowledge is still in the early stages.
I want to create a new custom control (Scheduler / Timeline control) that looks like the following picture:
My first idea was to start from controls already existing in Xamarin forms like Grid,...
But now I am thinking, if it is maybe better to start from Android and IOS controls instead?
Is there somebody who has experience in making custom controls like this for Xamarin Forms, and can you point me in the right direction?
Is there a way to define a Label in Xamarin Forms (XAML or code-behind) AppXYZ that can be updated from the Xamarin Android AppXYZ.Android: MainActivity.cs and AppXYZ.iOS:Main.cs? i.e. upon an event in Android (e.g. BlueTooth) set a short text in a common Forms elements? After viewing many example, no clarity yet. MessageCenter perhaps?
In Android Project: MainActivity.cs (for example):
FormsAppXYZ.LabelXYZ.Text = "Updated string";
If not possible, then proper way to do this with Xamarin Android Native ? appreciated since I'll have to mix in the label into a shared Xamarin Forms Tabbed GUI.
Depending on how much Bluetooth work you need to do, my first suggestion would be to use MessagingCenter as you have already alluded to.
The other obvious approach would be to use a third party plugin, as I don't believe Xamarin have released one. I am currently aware of these two:
